You can look a hurricane right in the eye   Twelve hundred people that are left to die   Follow the leaders, were it an eye   For an eye you'd all be blind   Death or murder, this I'm sure   In this uncertain time      So come pull a sheet over my eyes   So I can sleep tonight   Despite what I've seen today   I find you guilty of a crime   Of sleeping at a time   When you should have been wide awake      Down on the road the world is floating by   The poor and undefended left behind   While you're some where trading lives for oil   As if the whole world were blind      So come pull a sheet over my eyes   So I can sleep tonight   Despite what I've seen today   I found you guilty of a crime   Of sleeping at a time   When you should have been wide awake      Come pull this sheet over my eyes   So I can sleep tonight   Despite what I've seen      I found you guilty of a crime   Of sleeping at a time   When you should have been wide awake      Wide awake!   Wide awake!   Wide awake!   Wide awake!
